start your net loops on the ring x6 then double to make 12 then make 14 then make 16 x15 tmes long then break down the same as you started 14 12 6 but make sure you finish on the ring with 6 tye of that will give you 21 meshes or 3foot 6 net net see if that helps

i start mine with 9 meshes then add 1 mesh a row until i get to 15 meshes then carry on with 15 until you get to 6 meshes from the end then reduce by 1 mesh a row until you get to 9 meshes job done

thats very similar to the way i've seen on that dvd of steve hendersons Albert , and i've picked it up very easy adding and decreasing by one mesh all the time

this is how i do mine 8,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,15,15,15,14,13,12,11,10,9,8,8 for a 3ft6" net.

when i increase meshes i always do it at the end of my net and stick to this...when you come to the last loop this is were you want two meshes' add your 1'st do a knot then your 2'nd do a knot...and just keep doing this till you get to your required number. then when it comes to decreasing meshes pick the last 2 meshes up with a single loop and tie a knot.just 1 knot will do for this, hope this make sense.

 

atb saluki.
